Fill the Void tells the story of an Orthodox Hassidic
family from Tel Aviv. Eighteen-year-old Shira is the youngest
daughter of the family. She is about to be married off to a
promising young man of the same age and background. It is a
dream-come-true, and Shira feels prepared and excited.

On Purim, her twenty-eight-year-old sister, Esther, dies while
giving birth to her first child. The pain and grief that overwhelm
the family postpone Shira's promised match. Everything changes when
an offer is proposed to match Yochay - the late Esther's husband -
to a widow from Belgium. Yochay feels it's too early, although he
realizes that sooner or later he must seriously consider getting
married again. When the girls' mother finds out that Yochay may
leave the country with her only grandchild, she proposes a match
between Shira and the widower. Shira will have to choose between
her heart's wish and her family duty.
